He featured in both of Millwall's pre-season fixtures in Spain, as well as the behind-closed-doors fixture against Crystal Palace.

Everyone is probably aware that he has been training with us and joined us in Spain for the two fixtures last week. "He is a player who I know well from his time at QPR, and he brings a wealth of experience to midfield, which is one of the reasons we brought him in."
